Tecno releases new smartphone

TECNO Mobile has unveiled its latest mobile phone, the Camon CX, set to enter the 41 countries in the Middle East, Latin America and Africa, including Nigeria.

The phone, which was launched at an event in the Nairobi, Kenya on March 23, is designed “specifically for young, independent smartphone users.”

The IT company, in a statement, said the device would be “the ‘selfie camera’ for this market’s generation, allowing consumers to take brighter, clearer and faster selfies than ever before.”

Tecno said since the Camon series was introduced in 2015, over five million handsets globally had been sold, helping consumers experience high-quality selfie technology at the touch of a button.

It said, “Securing their position as the leading smartphone provider in African markets such as Nigeria, Tanzania, Egypt, Kenya and Cameroon, Tecno Mobile has adopted the latest visual technology in the Camon CX.

“The smartphone uses a smart image sensor composed of 16 megapixel sensors in the front camera, coupled with unique four-in-one technology. Each pixel sensor detects light, captures individual images and converts the information into signals before forming the final image, resulting in selfies that are 30 per cent brighter, capturing special moments perfectly.”

According to Tecno, which is part of Transsion Holdings, the smartphone-manufacturing company has had over 25 per cent of the market share in sub-Saharan Africa since 2014.

Speaking at the global launch of the Camon CX smartphone, the General Manager of Tecno Mobile, Stephen Ha, said, “We are very excited to unveil the Camon CX, as our latest smartphone. The phenomenon of the selfie has, in recent years, taken over smartphone usage, and photo quality is important to not just younger consumers but increasingly wider age demographics.

This American diplomat was not ready to open up on several issues raised by his interviewer. He has parried or tailored his answers to suit himself and his sponsoring government. Nigeria’s amalgamation is a curse. There is no doubt about that. The reasons why there is distrust, disloyalty to the Nigerian course could not have been truer than those adduced by Adewale Ademulegun in his “Why We Struck”. No one has love for Nigeria except those milking through her.

It will be more gainful to all parties if we remain one. There is strength in great numbers. We want to remain one Nigeria but first let there be sincerity of purpose. Let there be true autonomy of the federating units. Let there be resource control. Let there be regionalism. Let there be the supremacy of the rule of law. Let there be justice and equity. Let our so-called leaders be independent in their reasoning about Nigeria.

Britain, America and a host of the so-called world powers can never love our country more than theirs knowing fully well that our economic freedom means retrogression to them. If they truly love us, why did they encourage the Shehu Shagari government to borrow money from IMF at a time IMF should be borrowing money from us? The result is the downward trend in our economy and weak currency today. Above all, let us stop this lip service to Nigeria.

Full blooded Nigerian

We have been fed with tales of our potentials from when I was a kid. 30 years later, we are still talking about potentials.

It is sad to note that we still operate and exist the way we are more than half a century after independence.

Please beg our corrupt politicians and their allies in the civil service to allow Nigeria grow.

Ask him, or another US Ambassador to Nigeria exactly the same set of questions about Nigeria in another 50 years, and he would give the same responses.

His answers make me want to puke. He sounds like he is talking to kindergarten children. He should figure out where he left his testicles.
